The new K-Round coffee pods are made out of coffee and seaweed, but they’ll only work on Keurig’s new Alta coffee maker.
Coffee machine maker Keurig just unveiled a new plastic-free, metal-free compostable coffee pod called the K-Round. This new pod is a little puck of coffee compressed and sealed in a plant-based, food-grade shell of cellulose and starch. There’s no little aluminum tab to pull off at the top, no plastic cup or internal filter to dispose of afterward. Just a puck of coffee held together by a food-safe coating of seaweed.
These coffee balls are fully compostable in a backyard, which bodes well for K-Rounds because Keurig’s technology was developed in partnership with Delica. Phil Drapeau, senior vice president of Future Coffee Systems at Keurig, says partnering with Delica was a way to accelerate the timeline on research Keurig has been doing for years. “I think at this point it’s been for four to five years that we've been working on this process,” Drapeau says.
